It's Blood and Glory tomorrow and I still haven't picked my list yet... Not that I'm indecisive you see.

I have 2 choices ready to go.

List one is just units that I like or just finished painting really. It does fine against "regular" tourney lists but struggles against tier 1 cheese attacks.

The second list is more of a one trick pony. Has better answers to some optimised lists but will struggle against others.

Anyway - list 1

So, long story short "unkillable" (I wish) Stardrake vs Sword of Judgement assassin. 
Which to go for? Which is more fun to play against? I normally like tanky armies. List 1 obviously has the stardrake while list 2 has the potential of 30 immune to battleshock 2+ rr1 Libs...

Really love the 30lib squad. Its like a dream to field that

[Old World Gods?]

In the end times ulric spark got destroyed by teclis. Ulric got a part of him free and fuses into a human soldier (forgot his name but can look this up) to enchant his power with a spark of ulrics godlike strengt. The other part of ulric his spark enchanted the amberwizard from the end times while he was losing a duel against some chaos sorcerer. Ulric talks to this wizard and even attacks archaon. Ulrics mistrust for elves and bad temper are nicely written.

Feels like we a shooting army now for 2019. Longstrikes point drop but juds are still overprices. Have to say i expected more price drops. My list with juds libs and fulminators gets a price increase on the castellant. So goes up in 20. Hoped for a drop of 40 atleast

Hello everyone! I`m returning to the game and would like some advice on a list. I absolutely love the LCoSD and Dracoths.

What would currently be the most competitive 2000 points list with them?

Best wait for the new handbook. In about 2 weeks. Then al the competive lists gets rebuild. Who knows we might even play draconic units again in competive games

[AoS 2 - Stormcast Eternals Discussion]

Both sounds good to me. I feel like if we go they way for heavy price drop. People will play those units more. Atm my fulminators do work but nothing to justify the point cost.  Hope for atleast 60 point drop for drakesworn +lord celestant

[AoS 2 - Stormcast Eternals Discussion]

How much point do we think that draconic units wil go down? If they go down in points. I kind of hope making a list with 2 stardrakes and 4 fulminators in it and make it work somehow
